    Abstract: Display-to-touch noise may be perceptible when a touch image generated during an active period of an electronic display of an electronic device is used to determine a touch indication on the display. The electronic device may include a display pixel layer including a plurality of display pixels that write display images to the display during a display active period and continue displaying the display image during a display blanking period. The electronic device may also include a touch sense layer including a plurality of touch sense pixels that facilitate generation of a first touch image during a first display active period and generation of a second touch image during a first display blanking period. The electronic device may further include a controller coupled to the display pixel layer and the touch sense layer that facilitates the reduction or elimination of display-to-touch interference. In particular, the controller may determine a first noise metric associated with touch images generated during the first display active period and a second noise metric associated with touch images generated during the first display blanking period. Further, the controller may instruct the touch sense layer to not generate touch images during a second display active period in response to the first noise metric being greater than a noise threshold and the second noise metric not being greater than the noise threshold.

    Abstract: Techniques for implementing and/or operating an electronic device including a display pixel layer, which writes a display image during an active period and continues displaying the display image during a blanking period, and a touch sense layer, which generates a first touch image during the active period and a second touch image during the blanking period. The electronic device further includes a controller that determines a first noise metric indicative of display-to-touch noise resulting during the active period based on the first touch image, determines a second noise metric indicative of display-to-touch noise resulting during the blanking period based on the second touch image, and instructs the touch sense layer to not generate a third touch image during a subsequent active period in response to the first noise metric being greater than a noise threshold and the second noise metric not being greater than the noise threshold.
